He makes your music awesome. City of Heroes music needs some pizzaz. You might want to see if this fan will help in that department.

For all other fans that have not seen this epicness. Enjoy!!

I saw this video searching for a Thundercats orchestral theme. Made me come back and check the CoH progress. KUDOS guys 6 years...that makes you and Blizzard the only two teams to have an MMO survive past 04' without needing to go Free to Play or cancel the game. GRATS!!

I have renewed my sub thanks to this guys video. The youtube video on the re-inventing a super hero made me realize that Paragon IS the only gaming company that pushes what they can do with the money they receive, rather than do just what is required to keep subs flowing like blizzard does...either that or Blizzard can't program things that allow the community to interact (highly doubt this). As a Blizzard fanboy, concider these HUGE compliments to your company. You began with just 24 people!? That is even more amazing.

Another person that helped sell me back into this game was Samuraiko and her vids.

It is funny watching the artist over at Champions Online struggle with programing and handling the pressure that an MMO community brings. I wish them the best, but CoH, despite the out dated character models and some textures, is the ONLY real superhero game out on the market that catches the essence of comics such as Crisis on Infinite Earths, Secret Invasion, and soon Civil War.

So thanks guys for not settling for mediocrity and instead striving for uniqueness and programming advances.

I have to say, quite amazing use of editing tools, and the music was perfect.

I think the devs should employ this guy, he obviously has talent in this field.

/signed PLEASE employ him!
That music was amazing, although i like the main theme this was so much better. It's the kind of heroic music we need. Not the Blyde Square song which is Purple Haze but a little different.

I don't think composers are hired on as full-time workers so I doubt hey would "hire" him/her.

However, I would love if Paragon Studios commissioned a new Score for CoH.

The current score is terribly dated and I think developers seriously undermine the importance of the atmosphere a good score gives a game.

Glad you like it.

I agree, the movie composition and the music were quite good. If I must nitpick {and I must}, it would be that the attack* on the trumpets and the vocals was too low, and especially noticeable early in the song.


*I think that's the word, anyway - the progression between zero to full volume on a note

I like it. I also have to say that I suspect the OP and OminousVoice are the same person

Anyway, I do think it's time to upgrade the soundtracks of CoH.

Now that you mention it, that does make sense. Darkkami was created in May (this month) with 1 post. Doesn't matter though, CoH music still needs an advance.

I assure you, I am not the OP. I've already posted the track on the forums twice already, once as an mp3 download, and once for the video. There's no need for me to spam it even more.
I am however working on the CoV theme, so expect to see that sometime soon.

Everquest and Everquest 2, at the very least, are still not free to play or cancelled. If I were inclined to, I'd start digging around to find out who else is also.

Yeah, that was really cool. While I was at it, I checked out some of OV's other works, they're pretty epic as well. Was listening to the Gotham Theme, and right at about 45 seconds I got massive goosebumps.

/signed for having Ominous Voice re-work CoX music.

SWG is still kicking from '03. Barely, and probably not for much longer, but it's still there.
